No, it was yours, Sam. Whether you knew it or not. Steven simply picked up
on your fairly inocent, but mistaken statement that ATC uses SERVICE VOLUMES
to guide direct routing. You even referenced a table that is NOT based on
service volumes.

You both agree about the limitations on direct routing and Steven knows it.
He just likes to nit pick the details.

No, I need more help to understand how VOR or NDB direct-route
assignments by ATC are based on AGL altitudes.



They're not, that's a ridiculous assertion.

And, it's Stevie's assertion.

Details are important. The difference between AGL and MSL altitude at many
navaid locations in the US can be several thousand feet.

In your usual evasive style I noticed you ignored my post about service
volumnes and VFR on top.

Based on your post, he evaded EVERYTHING (i.e., original post is totally
blank).

Those are the values derived from service volumes, so to call them
service volumes in the context of the 7110.65 is not only reasonable, it
is exactly what the authors of the 7110.65 do as follows:

"4-1-4. VFR-ON-TOP
Use a route not meeting service volume limitations only if an aircraft
requests to operate "VFR-on-top" on this route."

To attach precision to a patch-work document such as the 7110.65 is a
fool's errand.
